What I find hilarious is that the president of the NBA announced all sorts of actions against Sterling.

And Sterling can give him a hearty FU and what can the NBA do?

I don't really care about basketball....and the stupid pandering that so many do to appease a CERTAIN GROUP of people.
Not only that, but how can you have that much money and some brains, yet THAT is what you pick for your g/f?!?! Look at her, if you are going to be old and snag some money grubbing who re, at least get one that carriers her self well and doesnt look like a he-she. I swear, I wouldnt be shocked if it has male anatomy down there. Perhaps, thats what he's into I suppose.

Again, when Linda Tripp recorded Monica Lewinsky, you all thought it was cute.

It was cute then, so it's cute now. Deal with it.

And you're damn right that that "certain group" is being appeased. They'd better be. They're the product. Deal with that one too.

His players can drive his franchise right into the poorhouse...when he can't keep his top talent and he can't attract free agents, GAME OVER!

As for his girlfriend, you guys need to lay off since I doubt y'all could do any better. I mean, he's a millionaire...maybe even a billionaire and that's the best he can do apparently. You guys are broke, so I can only imagine what you'd end up with since you wanna go there and talk about her looks.

2 million bucks is like beer money to the guy......and he bought the team for like 12 million.. if he has to sell it'll @250 million, Do people honestly think he gives a crap about what we think? If I had his money I'd drive around with my zipper down pissing on all of you while I paid somebody to post here

In America we have freedom of speech. Be it abusive, profane, stupid, insensitive, ignorant, idiotic, biased, prejudiced, etc etc, ad nauseam, we have the right to say it.

It does however, come with certain responsibilities, and repercussions. I think the NBA went WAY overboard, but I don't care. It's their business. I do hope that he gets the girl who illegally recorded the conversation thrown in jail, I hope his "X" wife gets half of all the gifts he gave to the woman in question, and I hope he drags this the the courts and costs the NBA BILLIONS.

I don't care. It was a private conversation which had no bearing on my life before or after I read about it.
